"Traders" in politics bring disgrace to all, says PM

He stated this while addressing a meeting parliamentary leaders in Islamabad on Friday. The meeting, however, failed to develop consensus over constitutional amendment for Senate elections.

In his remarks, the PM condemned horse-trading and termed it an act of disgrace for all parliamentarians. He said some people without any party affiliation want to contest the Senate election on the basis of money.

Mr. Sharif said this is not about buying votes, but about buying a parliamentarian’s conscience.
